Chapter 2 The Demon Lord? Are you talking about me?



As Lin Xiuyuan pushed the sword with even greater force, the Bihua Sword roared continuously, its blue aura suddenly bursting forth, forming countless intertwined sword shadows.

At first glance, it appears to ripple like water, its undulating form revealing a chilling and fierce sword intent.

The fierce sword strike directly blocked the demonic cultivator's path.

Seeing that Lin Xiuyuan had no intention of stopping, a cold glint flashed in Ma He's eyes, and a strong killing intent rose in his heart for no reason, causing his eyes to turn red. However, the situation was not right, so he had no choice but to suppress his killing intent, let out a cold snort, and suddenly slapped out with both hands.

In an instant, streaks of blood-red light flashed from his ten fingers, and with a flick of his fingers, a series of whooshing sounds rang out.

Like ten arrows of blood shooting out, they attacked the encroaching waves one after another.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Five arrows of blood shot ahead, colliding with the water in an instant.

Sword light clashed, blood arrows whistled, and water rippled, but the unstoppable distance separated them.

It was as if the collision of dazzling blood light caused "water" to splash everywhere.

Upon closer inspection, it was as if streaks of sword light shattered, transforming into specks of spiritual light that dissipated...

On the contrary, the five blood arrows only had a slightly dimmer crimson light, which clearly showed the difference in quality.

Lin Xiuyuan was not surprised by this scene. He was only at the initial stage and had not practiced any foundation-building techniques. He was just a half-baked foundation-building expert, so it was naturally difficult for him to gain an advantage in the contest of magical power.

If the opponent were at their peak, in a normal exchange, he would probably be defeated in just a few rounds, only having a chance to fight back because of the talisman.

The current intention is merely to hinder the opponent's progress, so there's no need to waste talismans.

Just as Lin Xiuyuan was about to regroup his offensive and try to entangle his opponent, he saw that the five blood arrows that followed, taking advantage of the broken attack of the Bihua Sword, were extremely agile and cleverly found the flaw. As if they had a spirit, they directly swept past the sword lights and whistled towards Lin Xiuyuan.

Upon seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan's face did not show any panic or solemnity at first; instead, a hint of surprise and doubt appeared.

Because, in his perception, these five blood arrows still possessed a fierce and powerful aura, just like the five blood arrows that had broken through the Bihua Sword's attack, both in appearance and aura.

But when Lin Xiuyuan scanned with all his might, he felt something was wrong. It seemed to be all show and no substance, and the energy was unstable.

However, the methods of demonic cultivators are unpredictable, so it's hard to say for sure. Lin Xiuyuan only sensed a little with his divine sense and wasn't certain. He was only offering a small helping hand to slow down the opponent's progress, so there was no need to risk his life.

Immediately, Lin Xiuyuan had a thought, and the Bihua Sword no longer blocked the opponent. He immediately withdrew it and turned around to protect it.

Suddenly, a beam of earthy yellow light shot out from Lin Xiuyuan's arms.

Then it suddenly stopped, hovering in front of him, and the earthy yellow light on the black gold shield suddenly shone brightly, extending out layers of golden light walls that surrounded Lin Xiuyuan without any blind spots, as if forming an indestructible barrier.

At this moment.

The five arrows of blood, fired afterward, were already upon them.

But the next scene was unexpected, yet it seemed as if Lin Xiuyuan had guessed it. As soon as the five blood arrows touched the golden light barrier, they suddenly dissipated like bubbles with a "pop".

It seemed like something illusory and unreal, yet its aura felt so real, which was truly surprising.

Lin Xiuyuan initially thought that this was just a way to amplify the attack of the blood arrows, but he never expected that from beginning to end, these five blood arrows were all illusions.

What amazing illusion magic!

A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Xiuyuan's eyes.

Upon seeing this, Ma He couldn't help but smile contemptuously and utter a harsh remark.

"That's it? You overestimate yourself and dare to try to stop me! Ha, when I have a free hand, I'll see you, you brat, and I'll drain you dry."

Blood Arrow's feint had already been retracted, not delaying him much. Now, the black light was activated again with full force, instantly passing Lin Xiuyuan and continuing to flee forward at high speed.

Zheng Yunwei, who had just caught up from behind, couldn't help but sigh softly upon seeing this.

However, she also knew the abilities of the Blood Hand Illusion Demon, so she didn't blame Lin Xiuyuan. The fact that he was willing to intervene was already more than enough. Although it didn't work, she naturally couldn't ask for more.

"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist. This demon's methods are strange, so there's no need for you to belittle yourself."

After briefly leaving a sentence as she passed by, Zheng Yunwei continued her pursuit with all her might.

In a fleeting glance, Lin Xiuyuan saw the face of a gentle woman, but before he could answer, she had already gone far away.

Seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan immediately turned and flew away on his sword, changing direction and continuing onward to avoid the two. He naturally didn't care about this matter; it was just a casual action. If he were to go all out to stop them, he would only need to use a few talismans at most, but there was no need to waste that effort. He only did this out of consideration for his position, and since he was on the other side's territory, he couldn't simply ignore it.

The blue light streaked across the land, continuing its journey into the distance. In less than a month, it should be able to leave Liang Kingdom, then enter the desolate land, and after that, it would be the location of the Great Yue Kingdom.

However, Lin Xiuyuan had not traveled far, less than a quarter of an hour, when a streak of light came rapidly pursuing him from behind.

Seeing the somewhat familiar white light, Lin Xiuyuan initially thought it was the gentle woman from before who had come to express her gratitude.

I couldn't help but feel surprised, thinking that this was really unnecessary.

But when Lin Xiuyuan stopped his escape light and waited, and the white escape light got closer and closer, he realized that it was not the same person and that he had misunderstood.

Their auras were very similar, so they should both be cultivators from the Falling Maple Sect, and both were female cultivators, but their cultivation levels were slightly different.

The gentle woman from before was a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator, while the one behind her was only a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator.

This caused Lin Xiuyuan to frown as he watched the streak of light heading straight for him, wondering what was going on.

Just as Lin Xiuyuan was surprised.

A cold, low voice rang out, "Demon, how dare you stay here and wait for me? Do you really think I can't see through your true form?"

"Demon? Are you talking about me?"

Lin Xiuyuan was stunned, his eyes filled with astonishment. He looked around and realized he was all alone...
